How very disappointing David Blackwell and his fellow Canvey Independent Party councillors failed to congratulate residents upon an excellent community initiative at Bumblebee Park in the article Giant Bee Sculpture Too Scary for Park (June 22).
They preferred to cast scorn upon both the design of the new sculpture and the maintenance of the plants within the garden.
Along with Jackie Humberstone from Groundwork South East, islanders enjoyed a fantastic day and deserve better than the political sniping from Mr Blackwell.
